In almost every society that had been established before the 1900th century, there were laws or rules governing men and women and how each should be treated. Women, as seen in these societies, were looked down upon and not treated equally as men did. Men held most of the rights that every person should have and left women with basic human rights. Throughout most of the duration of these civilization, the status of women in relation to that of men didn’t change and men were always seen as superior. In the novel, Pride and Prejudice written by Jane Austen, we see how society treated women through what she had experienced in her life. Misogynistic elements such as social, political, and economic inferiority of women are portrayed in this novel by the characters to show the prejudiced and unfair status of women versus that of men.

As a mother in her time period, she had only one goal…to find good husbands that had money for her daughters so…
